By week three, my son had quietly ignored all of it.” And honestly, that’s often the case. Summer has a funny way of exposing the gap between what we plan and what we actually need. For most teens, this season is not just a break from school but a reset for mental health, sleep, and identity. Yet the pressure to stay productive sneaks in, summer goals, skill building, internships... a strict and detailed to-do list.Here is the thing: a balanced summer routine does not mean doing everything; it means choosing what matters. One teen we spoke to said she started keeping “two good things a day” instead of a to-do list. Sometimes it was finishing a chapter, sometimes just getting out of bed before noon, small wins, but real ones. Parents can support this by shifting the conversation from results to rhythm. Ask how the day felt, not just what got done.That small shift builds trust and lowers pressure. At the same time, a little structure can help summer not turn into one long scroll session. Think gentle growth, not strict schedules. A simple trick is the “half and half” approach, half the day for something that adds value, reading, helping at home, learning something small, and half for relaxation, friends, or doing absolutely nothing. Yes, doing nothing counts. Teens need boredom more than we admit; it is where creativity and self-discovery quietly grow. Parents, try being a sounding board instead of a supervisor; maybe a quick weekly check-in over pizza works better than daily reminders. And teens, it is okay if your summer is not aesthetic or perfectly planned. The real goal is to feel rested, a bit more confident, and still connected to your people. Because when school starts again, what stays is not the checklist — it is the feeling that you had a summer that was actually yours.4. Why do most teens fail to stick to the summer planA．They forget their goals. B．Their plans are too strict.C．They don’t have much free time. D．Their summer activities are boring.5. What does the “half and half” method meanA．Half at home, half outside. B．Half for growth, half for rest.C．Half alone, half with friends. D．Half for study, half for sports.6. What role does the author advise parents to play in summerA．A strict reminder. B．A task planner.C．A supportive listener. D．A summer tutor.7. What is the most suitable title for the passageA．Your Summer, Your Way B．How to Make a Summer PlanC．Doing Nothing: Doing Everything D．The Gap Between Rest and ProductivityCBoth caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee can lead to improvements in mood and cognitive performance, possibly through their effects on the gut microbiome (肠道菌群).Scientists have long known that coffee can influence digestion, cognition and mood, thanks partly to interactions with gut microbes. But while most research on coffee’s effects has focused on caffeine, coffee is also one of the richest sources of plant polyphenols (多酚). Gut microbes may convert them into biologically active substances, which may influence brain function.To get a clearer view of these interactions, John Cryan at University College Cork in Ireland and his colleagues organized 62 healthy participants, half of whom were regular coffee drinkers and half of whom didn’t drink coffee. After an initial comparison, regular drinkers stopped drinking coffee for 14 days, followed by a 21-day reintroduction stage in which all participants were randomly allowed to consume either caffeinated or decaffeinated coffee.In each stage, the researchers collected samples like blood and urine (尿液) to assess physiological responses to coffee polyphenols. They also assessed the participants’ mood, cognition, stress, sleep and behavior.Obviously, compared with non-coffee-drinkers, consuming caffeinated coffee was associated with lower anxiety and improved attention, whereas decaffeinated coffee was linked to improved scores in memory tests and better sleep quality. Both kinds of coffee were associated with lower ratings of stress and depression.When coffee was removed and then reintroduced, the participants’ microbiomes changed rapidly, with both regular and decaffeinated coffee being linked to higher levels of beneficial gut bacteria. “We were surprised by how dynamic the system is,” says Cryan.The analysis suggests that coffee’s effects on cognitive scores are caused by polyphenols not caffeine, since these scores correlated with the measurements of certain polyphenols from the participants’ urine samples.Team member Daniele Del Rio at the University of Parma, Italy, says a key next step will be to determine how different types of coffee affect the microbiome. “Not all coffee is the same: even the degree of roasting profoundly influences its chemical composition.”8. Why did scientists carry out the studyA．To invent new coffee drinks. B．To test coffee’s caffeine level.C．To study coffee-gut relations. D．To cure people’s sleeplessness.9. What can we learn from the research processA．It judges coffee taste via samples.B．It is mainly made up of three phases.C．It is based on the interview of the 62 participants.D．It focuses on the effects of caffeine on human health.10. What does decaffeinated coffee help improveA．Stress and appetite. B．Attention and mood. C．Diet and digestion. D．Sleep and memory.11. Which of the following affects people’s cognition mostA．Caffeine. B．Coffee polyphenols. C．Types of coffee. D．Degree of roasting.DIf artificial intelligence is going to transform the way science is done, as many of the AI laboratories hope, it needs to master board games first. That’s the lesson from a recent study of AI models’ decision-making skills, tested with the board game Battleship. The goal was to find ways for models to seek more information with limited resources.Science requires lots of decisions — researchers must choose which experiment to run among many hypotheses (假设). The choices will determine which path to follow when resources for experiments are limited, and getting data is either expensive or time-consuming,” says Pepe, the project leader.Pepe and his team designed the board game Battleship that could be played by humans or AI. In the game, one team member generated questions about the map of ships’ locations while another answered them, in a combined effort to locate where the ships were hidden and sink them. By counting how many rounds it took to sink all the ships, the researchers could test how large language models (LLMs) performed compared with other LLMs and with the 42 human players. Initially, humans consistently won in fewer moves than Llama-4-Scout, Meta’s efficiency-focused AI model. OpenAI’s reasoning model, GPT-5, performed better than both.The scientists got ideas from Bayesian experimental design, in which researchers guess the likelihood based on what they already know by raising questions. The scientists trained the models to ask smart questions, which helped them hit ships more accurately and learn more information each time. They also learned to think about the next moves. The scientists also found that using short pieces of code, instead of plain language, helped the players be more accurate. Through this process, the group led Llama-4-Scout to win in fewer moves than GPT-5 two thirds of the time at about one hundredth of the cost. On average, it also won in seven fewer moves than the human players.Battleship is much simpler than many problems in science — chemical and biological samples, for instance, can’t be interpreted as clearly as Battleship boards. But Pepe says the methods AI used in the game will probably also apply to scientific decision-making.12. Why is Battleship chosen for the studyA．It’s simple like daily tasks. B．It provides cheap resources.C．It mirrors scientific decision-making. D．It helps AI learn how to ask questions.13. What does the underlined word “they” refer to in paragraph 4A．The battleships. B．The AI models. C．Human players. D．Game questions.14. Which performed better after the experimental processA．Llama-4-Scout. B．GPT-5. C．Human players. D．Common AI models.15. What is the author’s attitude towards the studyA．Interested in board game invention. B．Confident about the AI they trained.C．Hopeful for AI’s future use in science. D．Doubtful about the performance of LLM.七选五Healthy Social Media Habits Every Teen Should KnowIt won’t surprise you that teens these days live a large portion of their daily lives online.

On my way home from school, I heard a weak cry coming from the old bridge. Under a broken box lay a small dog, his brown fur wet and dirty. One of his back legs was caught in a piece of wire.I knelt down, trying to free him. The dog looked at me with fearful eyes but didn’t bite. “It’s okay,” I whispered, though my hands were shaking. The wire was tight. I ran home to get tools and some old clothes.When I returned, the dog had moved deeper into the shadows. I sat quietly, placing food nearby. Twenty minutes passed before he slowly came out. This time, I managed to cut the wire. The dog licked my hand once, then ran into the bushes.That night I couldn’t sleep. The image of his scared eyes stayed with me. The next morning, I went back with more food. The dog was there, waiting. I named him Bridge. For a week, I visited daily, gaining his trust bit by bit. My parents noticed the muddy footprints on my shoes.“You can’t keep him,” Mom said firmly. “We’re moving to a new apartment next month. No pets are allowed there.” I knew she was right, but my heart ached. Bridge was starting to follow me home, limping (一瘸一拐地走) less each day.I tried to find Bridge a home. I posted photos online, asked neighbors, and visited the local animal shelter. But no one wanted a dog with an injured leg. “Too much trouble,” they said. “Not pretty enough.” Each rejection made me more determined. Bridge wasn’t trouble. Bridge was brave, loyal, and learning to trust again.On Saturday, I took Bridge to the community park. A “Pet Adoption Day” banner (横幅标语)hung near the gate. Bridge sat calmly beside me, his brown eyes watching the crowd. He had come so far from that rainy bridge. Now he needed someone to finish the journey with him.注意：（1）续写词数应为 150 左右；（2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。Para 1: My heart was heavy with possible rejections, but I kept searching.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Para 2: Watching the couple walking away with Bridge, I felt a mixture of emotions.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________参考答案阅读理解1.A 2.C 3.D4.B 5.B 6.C 7.A8.C 9.B 10.D 11.B12.C 13.B 14.A 15.C七选五16.F 17.C 18.E 19.D 20.A完形填空21.A 22.B 23.A 24.A 25.B26.C 27.B 28.A 29.C 30.C31.B 32.D 33.D 34.C 35.D语法填空36.which 37.the 38.caused 39.guidance 40.be exposed41.to analyze 42.with 43.and 44.the most important 45.involving46.通知范文NoticeTo improve mutual progress among students, our school will hold an all-English English Study Sharing Session next Wednesday.

Many passers-by glanced at Bridge and left quickly. Just as I was about to give up, a gentle middle-aged couple walked up. They knelt down and stroked Bridge’s head softly. They told me they loved dogs very much and had enough time to take good care of him. I told them all about Bridge’s story and handed over his favorite snacks. They promised to bring him for visits often.Para 2: Watching the couple walking away with Bridge, I felt a mixture of emotions. I felt a little sad to part with the lovely dog, but much more joyful knowing he would have a warm permanent home. I no longer worried about his injured leg or lonely days. This experience taught me love means giving others a better home instead of selfish possession. From then on, I often took part in animal adoption activities to help more stray animals find their families.
